Yes, infant days were definitely harder, but you’ll be here soon enough. My youngest is 5 and I barely remember that phase. I think your partner should pick up breakfast/making lunches so you can enjoy your workout time without rushing back!

Haha pp here - I wish! My partner is usually up and logged into work by the time I get back from my run. So I am scrambling around home after working out to get 3 kids ready and out the door. Once I done with my workout from 7am until the kids are in bed at 9pm it’s total insanity in my life!

If by "out the door" you mean take your kids to school, totally jealous!

Iced coffee next to my water during my workout (which happens in our basement).

Big sympathy to moms with littles trying to fit in a workout. I tried everything when my kids were younger, and it was better than nothing, but I'm a morning worker-outer, at least for the big sweats (I'm always happy to go for a walk with a friend).

I posted above but I couldn't find time to exercise until my youngest is 10; so I'm jealous of YOU; you are doing way better than I did!

I have to do it immediately. Have clothes ready the night before, put them on, and get out the door. If I were to stop to do something like make coffee or check email, it would be game over.
